Apparently most voters didn’t vote for the sake of the person.

That patch is manually added. Moreover, some apps have hard binding with their id, making the situation more complicated. Kiwi is not on f-droid at all. They host their own version. It might be easier for the app authors to do it. But f-droid maintainers don’t have this capacity.
